I noticed no significant difference between 10.2 and 10.1 (though I did switch back to 10.1.3 for other reasons). Kernels usually make a bigger difference than the ROM, too. So, try to provide more information. People often use an app called Better Battery Stats. Keep watching the sync with google servcies (or other sync services you might use). Or maybe read the logcat if you can understand it. Post the exact version of the build you are running. What kind of battery life do you normally get (in your area) with different software (ROM/kernel) installed? Troubleshooting needs info. The more info you provide, the better chance people can help.

I'm not at all trying to pick on you. But it commonly happens that people ask for help/advice, but don't ever provide any required information, so it is impossible to even take a guess. So, this is just a reminder to anyone asking for help.. :good:

And even then, real world situations have a bunch of unpredictable transient anomalies, which likely only you might be able to identify. For example:

1. the tower nearest your work was shut down for maintenance/repair for a few days... and the phone was working extra hard to keep connected to a more distant tower than usual. What was the signal level that day? What is it normally?

2. Google services might be failing (gmail had some issues for some people lately)... and phone keeps trying to sync to a borked server, continuously.

3. Maybe the battery in your phone is failing (not a software issue at all) ? Verify it isn't a hardware problem by going back to stock ROM for a while.
[Nexus 4 General] yaatzek:
Well I had also strange problem with battery drain. Few days ago I was tired of those damn deadlocks so I though I'd go back to 10.1 as it become stable. Wiped, flashed and after setting everything up I noticed in some time that my battery is falling down like crazy. I've noticed that I had constant data usage. Searched and found out that this is a bug when google services tries to download ota over and over. There are ways to fix this (fotakill, autostarts and some more), but none of it worked. I thought, o hell I'm going back to 10.2 no matter the deadlocks :D So again wipes, flashes etc. And I had it again, constant data transfer! Man I was angry. Luckily I had a twrp backup from 16.09, restored and the problem was gone. Now I flashed latest nightly and it's also ok. I have no idea what was it all about neither had time to investigate it. I remember only that on every clean flash there was google services update which I've accepted to download. It also appeared after twrp restore but then I've denied it, so maybe this was it?

A question about privacy guard. In the CM changelog there was this:

http://review.cyanogenmod.org/#/c/49864/

I know that app ops is that menu that Google created to revoke permissions.

Last I used privacy guard, I'd just check a V in the app info so privacy guard would revoke certain permissions. But does the above commit mean that privacy guard can be now used to revoke selected permissions?

[Nexus 4 General] TheeWolf:
Thank you, but from this post I did not understand:

1. Is it possible to toggle on/off certain permissions? for example only location, contacts, etc... in case I wouldn't want to block everything.

2. In the original app ops you couldn't block a permission that hasn't been used before. For example, if you hadn't tried to take a picture with the Facebook app, you wouldn't even see the permission needed for this in app ops. Is this the same for PG?

Not staying connected to google account

Running the latest nightly, am noticing that my signal bars (data or WiFi) are not staying blue and, as such, I am not remaining connected to google accounts. I came from 9/20 with no issue. Anyone know of a fix/reason or should I just jump back to the 9/20 rom

Thanks in advance.

Hi, I just have a completely stupid and random question related to chrome BETA browser on the nexus 4...

Can anyone who use this browser please check for me if at the top left corner of the browser next to the omnibox there is a "+" symbol to add new tabs?

Cause I'm sure that I saw it before and now it's not there... Or maybe I'm just going completely crazy... :sly:

If you can attach a screenshot that will be great!

Thanks a lot in advance for the help and sorry to ask this here!

Privacy guard is basically the same. The only difference is that it's using app ops as backend now.

If you want to turn off specific permissions you still have to use app ops.

The only thing that changes for you is that you can use the shortcut to app ops within the privacy guard.
[Nexus 4 General] cammel:
Thanks for sharing the screenshot!

But... Why I don't have it anymore???

Are you using the latest version of chrome beta??

thanks!! gonna try it!
[Nexus 4 General] arlenwoot:
1. With app ops yes its possible to do that.

2. You can turn off any permission, regardless of if its been used or not.

Example - I turned off location, camera, and record audio right after I installed the app before ever using them.
[Nexus 4 General] arlenwoot:
I lost the + too with the latest chrome beta update.
[Nexus 4 General] irmantas:
Just guess but did you tried to search chrome://flags for this option?
[Nexus 4 General] arlenwoot:
Yup, only thing I could find that might be related, is the new tab option but that didn't change anything.

[Nexus 4 General] 1234568:
I'm not sure why some people have the plus button and others don't. I do think though that losing it is likely an intentional change by Google, as they recently rolled out new gestures to chrome beta that make it irrelevant. Just drag down on the menu button and release your finger on new tab to select it. One gesture - new tab.

[Nexus 4 General] cammel:
I had the + button before I uninstalled the app, then after I installed it again from the play store yesterday the + button wasn't there anymore, no matter how many times I uninstall and re-install the app it never came back....

So what I did was to restore and old titanium backup I had of the chrome beta app, and it came back!! Then the play store told me I have an update for the browser so I updated it and + button is still there after the update, so my conclusion is that if you freshly install the app from the play store = no + button, and if you have it installed before and update it the + button remains there, which makes no sense at all, but it's the only thing that comes to my mind right now.

I sent an email to Google last night about this thing, I hope they answer me and fix it.

What we can try for those who still has the + button is to uninstall the app and re-install it from the play store and see if after a clean install of the app the + button is still there...

Thanks you guys for answer me about this before!

Weird problem with camera/scanner...won't focus on anything closer than two feet away. So if I try to scan a barcode it just can't get it in focus, tried clearing barcode app, different camera apps

I haven't heard are people having hardware focus issues with this camera? Or is it something since the cm focal removal?

Edit:

Restored a stock image, and now the camera pulls focus. I had applied the zip that allowed both focal and the stock camera to coexist. I guess at some point something got messed up once focal was pulled...maybe?

Restoring backup...maybe applying the stock gapps

Restored gapps still won't focus. Cleared gallery

[Nexus 4 General] CMNein:
Add me to the very rare deadlock victim. I don't doubt that there are those that may experience them more however, and that yes, it would be a PITA.

They're much more common on the N7 (2013) for me, stock ROM or not.
[Nexus 4 General] drawde40599:
In the beginning builds i thought same thing and didn't use it, seen they did some work to the kernel so tryed agn and i no longer have deadlocks . Maybey a full wipe would help u.? ... I don't think its fixed but they did something to make it better for "most"

QUESTION? A search for wifi brought up nothing, but ive been on 24th build till just now (great build! ) im noticing wifi isn't working correctly for me on 28th build, downloads r so slow and youtube isn't usable because of the buffering, reinstalled 24th build and wifi is perfect agn. Anyone having /notced this "issue"
[Nexus 4 General] cyberon:
Deadlocks are a big "no no" to me ATM, they kinda remind me the "delay on call answer" on my old Nexus One, CM is supposed to be a better experience than stock, and that's simply not happening right now.

Back to stock/CM10.1 and eagerly waiting for a fix.

Ps: i get a lot of deadlocks on my N4.

I've noticed something strange... Lately I've had a few YouTube videos say that it's not available in my country, this has never happened to me ever. I'm in the US and always have been. I've also just noticed I have no option to purchase movies on Google play. I can only rent. Is it possible that my phone is reporting as being from another country or something?

FIXED:

Hmmm I cleared play store data/cache and its fixed.
[Nexus 4 General] thracemerin:
The device figures out it's location based on mobile provider mainly, so it's highly unlikely that it would think it's in a different country. Unless something is wrong with your provider or you have had it on airplane mode since it locked towers in a different country or you have VPN set up that tunnels traffic through a different country.

edit: Another possibility is you have privacy guard set for those apps so they can't determine your location, undetermined location always defaults to any region specific features being disabled.

It is in "Tool" section, not "Screen", I admit it is a bit misleading, but if you check the image carefully, you can see it ;)

- CPU Frequency profile

- Voltage profile for some settings

- Sound control for faux's patches

- Advanced gamma control for N4 with faux's patch

- Touch Filter Control for N4 with supported kernels

- Bootloader lock/unlock without fastboot and data wipe for some devices

- Kernel backup/restore on some supported devices

- Launcher shortcuts to some app operations

Not sure what's wrong here, I'm using stock N4 kernel using Faux's interface (maybe it doesn't appear for Franco, IDK), and I repeat, I do not have the donate key :eek:

Issues with Tasker on recent nightlies

I have been having some issues with Tasker on the recent nightlies. I use Tasker to put my phone in/out of a defined car mode when the phone connects to my vehicles bluetooth. On the recent nightlies, past week or so, when the bluetooth disconnects and tasker starts the "car mode off" task, the phone will lockup and reboot.

The strange thing is that once it reboots and I manually run the "car mode off" task it completes just fine.

I am just wondering if anyone else has seen similar behavior. I can post more details if needed.
